The Mobile Settings is where an user with appropriate permissions can carry out certain administration tasks including:

• Editing the Sync URL and Sync Password for your mobile store
• View the Realm Explorer
• Export Data (i.e. export your database file).

To edit mobile settings, the user must have the View/Edit Preferences permission set for the mobile store on the Central server. Once these permissions are set, the Settings button will be visible the next time the user logs in.

In the mSupply Central server:

1. Log into the mobile store
2. Go to File > Edit users
3. Select the mobile user (whom you want to give permission for backing mobile data up), double click it. An edit user window will open.
4. Go to Permission (3) tab and check the View/edit preferences permission on

Click OK to save it and again click OK to close User list… window.

Users with the appropriate permissions can access the mobile Settings on the bottom right of the main screen.

Clicking this button opens the Settings window.

When edited, the following warning will appear:

For changes to occur, click the Save Changes button.

When prompted, re-enter your password to confirm the changes.

For support purposes, it may be necessary to recover a backup of the mSupply Mobile database from the device. Click Export Data button to generate the backup. You will get a toast notification saying Exported data file.

An admin worker will then be able to recover this backup file from Download > mSupplyMobile_data folder.
